Bore off? Talking about our football team and manager on a match day thread, oh yeah silly me. 

It's a valid question I feel. I'm not defending Johnson but with an unchanged team and formation it's hard to see exactly where the line is drawn between a manager getting it wrong and the players getting it wrong. 

Whats Johnson done differently today versus Huddersfield, do you think? 

Even a broken watch is correct twice a day

It's the ******* horrible kit! I reckon they can't pick each other out! Don't think that excuse has been used before.........

In all seriousness it's a pi55 awful kit!

Thanks again, Lee.

I don't believe in luck in football, in specific situations. Everything happens for a reason. But, unless you're a very good team it's all down to chance.

That is the only explanation for battering Huddersfield and the subsequent performance today. Brentford look good today, Huddersfield beat them twice. Seems like it's all pre-deterimined so I've given up thinking about it.

That's exactly my point. I'm just curious as to why it's the players achievement when we win and the managers fault when we lose. 

If Johnson - who I want out by the way in case that's not already clear - had made 6 changes and tinkered with the formation again I could understand it being entirely his fault. 

I understand the buck stops with him but IMO a lot of players need to take a good look at themselves when this laughable season is over. 

And my point is exactly what in creation makes LJ any different to any manager in world professional football?

Managers get sacked players don't and no matter how bad results get and the misguided love in for a manager well out of his depth is it will always be that way.

Not saying he should be different. Was just making an observation about the way things are. 

Not sure who the misguided love in comment is aimed at as I've not seen any love for him round these parts for a long long time.
